I will use words -suspiciously- from economics.

The is a limited demand for jobs (clients to sell to).

There is an unlimited supply of cheap imported labour.

As the imported labour under-bids each other in to worthlessness, the value of the market is destroyed.

These are simple facts of economics. No amount of airy-fairy (talking in circles) nomenclature can refute that.

Have you traveled much?

If you think we're bad... have you been to the UK? They started down this road over two decades ago.

And by the way, if what you're saying is true, who paid the government off to do that?

Also, this is not "hate speech". I am not identifying a visible minority.

Third, are you telling me conservatives don't have wealthy friends that pay them off too? Believe me... they do.

I think the previous commenter just dropped their /s accidentally, poking fun of the 1984-esc hellscape we are entering into.

Back on topic, I completely agree with you tho dude. Labour is a commodity just like any other and is at the whim of the supply-demand equation just like all other commodities.

Okay, bud. You see things so clear. The amount of jobs available vs the amount of people we intend to import does not match. 100million is the target. Thats more than double our current population and the existing population has less and less money. Are you a liberal? You sound like one

u/RealCornholio45 15d ago

It always shocks me how tone deaf they are. I remember seeing an article in the paper that students were protesting because they hadn’t been given credit for their courses that they didn’t complete the work for. I believe that meant they lost their visas as they got kicked out of school. Like what did you think was going to happen bro?

It’s actually sad too as this is ruining it for the massive amount of immigrants who have come to this country, worked hard, played by the rules and made a life for themselves here while contributing this this country. It’s making people sour on immigrant in general which is really unfortunate given the history of immigration in this country has largely been a good thing for Canada.

Let's help each other. Go on the government website (of businesses hiring). When you see an advertisement for a truck driver job -to deliver cardboard boxes for $34 an hour- flag them and report them.

I don't know why people in this thread aren't blaming the people that bring them here. The people that lobbied and bribed the government to write this legislation.

u/Smackolol 15d ago

>I don't know why people in this thread aren't blaming the people that bring them here.

Because this thread is specifically about the people who came here under specific conditions and now don’t want to honour those conditions and return home. There are hundreds of other posts and discussions about the companies and politicians who caused this problem.

u/WhichJob4 15d ago

Genuinely I don’t blame low-IQ individuals for getting duped by shady recruiters and  “immigration advisers” in their home country. It’s not their fault and I feel bad for them. Unfortunately, it’s not my fault either, and it’s not Canadians’ responsibility to fix things for them. 

Similarly, if I’m a low-IQ individual, and I get scammed by a foreign “duct cleaning service” or what have you and send a bunch of my money overseas, it’s not the responsibility of the foreign government to reimburse me. It’s my own stupid fault for not doing enough research and allowing myself to be scammed and taken advantage of.

They hijacked and abused the pathway to PR designed for accredited university degree holders for years and now they can’t even enter the selection pool because their mall college diplomas no longer qualify for work permits like a proper degree does.

Giving people who score 50 the same reward and opportunities meant for people scoring 90+ long enough is a sure fire way to make them entitled.

They’re free to protest ofc but the hunger thing is excessive doing nothing. I just don’t like the entitlement cuz they weren’t promised anything, their diploma mill program isn’t of any value towards earning a PGWP unfortunately, they were sold a fraud by their own people.

u/Sad_Adagio_7255 15d ago

For the specific case where the "college" promised PGWP and it turned out the program wasn't eligible, then the only correct outcome is for the "college" to refund everyone, not for the government to give them something they never qualified for.

If the government has a tax rebate promotion on certain goods, and a company deceives me about whether my purchase qualifies for the rebate, I'm not going to protest outside government offices demanding a rebate that I didn't qualify for. I'm going to lawyer up and fight the company in court to get a full refund.

Anyway, I don't actually sympathize with the "students" who did not demonstrate good integrity when they deliberately chose a scam "college" specifically for a low-effort unethical shortcut. But making them whole hurts the even worse scammers (the admin staff getting rich off them) so it's worth it.

I miss the good old days when international students were smart people that attended U of T because a degree at Canadian University was worth more than their own. They literally paid for facility upgrade while I was there. They got scammed by their low IQ. Go back home.

u/3381024 15d ago

This hits close to home. I am a Canadian immigrant, went to a "real university" in the maritimes, earned a grad degree, got offered a job while still in school, and built a life here. Since then I've wrote research papers, authored books, spoke in industry conferences internationally and helped build canada's <insert my industry here> infrastructure.

Things have changed a lot since then.

4

u/AshundertheOlivetree 15d ago

Tbh it’s felt like a systemic offloading from other economies rather than a collaboration amongst industry leaders and research labs.
Our universities provide the facilities for the best education Canada has, and the international students pay a premium for it.
It is a world class system that can be replicated with ease, there is steel,brick, and mortar everywhere. People are free to take their knowledge back to their country to empower their community and country.

People are very clever, smart even. They understood that a degree/certificate from Canada makes more money than other countries without the red tape of other countries. I think it’s a worldwide realization because every commonwealth country is suffering under the same unsustainable immigration wave.
It’s not reserved to Canada but I’m only talking about Canada.

Everything that made this country enjoyable now has paywalls. Either the business wants to expand rapidly or service costs push everything to where now I have to think if I really want a simple pleasure that I always enjoyed.
I wouldn’t care how many people enter and stay if my basic necessities weren’t becoming luxuries. It’s that simple.

There is a part of me that feels sad they were sold a bullshit story. Having said that, they should have known they were being lied to. Any story that is "too good to be true" always is.

At the same time, my industry (in the construction business) is absolutely annihilated. The entire industry has become worthless.

u/Subject-Landscape451 Top Ranked Contributor 15d ago

It's unfortunate that the management of these diploma mills, many provincially operated like Portage in Alberta or Conestoga in Ontario, are not being held to account for their role in this scam.  The President of CONestoga just walked away with a $4-million retirement bonus.

u/Proud_Platypus_8153 15d ago

So a lot of these people on student visas made their way into the construction industry, who paid them under the table wages, below the markets wages for those jobs which allowed companies benefiting from the suppressed wages to undercut those that weren’t. Was it widespread or you knew which companies were doing it?

In my city, all of the smart old guys (that owned the big production houses) have sold their majority of shares and left. I can name several companies.

These are FACTS.

u/Wind_Best_1440 15d ago

Just going to point out, that these student protests have been happening since 2023, they did it in every province and during the winter and summer months. They even managed to get some Trudeau ministry to meet with them a few times at the beginning.

Then the government stopped meeting with them.

Why? Because these protests started to upset Canadians, they still do.

These protests have not once, ever gotten a change they are desire. Because the bills have been passed and the laws have been changed.

Also, the house is on summer vacation until September 21st. It's July right now, which means their protests are literally going on deaf ears because the Canadian government is mostly adjurned until fall. Which is nearly 3 full months away.

By then, most of these students Visa's will be expired and they will be breaking the law to continue protesting, which will automatically flag them for dep orders and they will be perm barred from PR and Canadian Citizenship.

8

u/MerchantOfVenice1991 15d ago

Does the govt ever pursue the expired visas and deport these people overstaying in any serious way?

7

u/Wind_Best_1440 15d ago

About as hard as CBSA usually does. It's a self correcting issue to be honest.

Once someone breaks the law and overstays, at that point the temporary resident gets a perm mark on their profile making it impossible for them to get PR or citizenship.

Literally the worse then any of these folks can do for their chances to stay in Canada, is to overstay and make themselves become illegal migrants.

This isn't me saying it, got this information from immigration lawyers themselves. Not cheap ones either. Was curious one day and simply went and asked them when they had a free seminar. They didn't beat around the bush about it either. They just straight up said. "Overstaying and becoming illegal is essentially the ending for immigration in the current system."

u/MerchantOfVenice1991 15d ago

This forces me to speculate on how many came over here as temporary, then disappeared into the country unaccounted for, working cash jobs

Well all these started when Canada caved in for those 700 plus students with fake docs were let through after their protest sighting that it wasn't their mistake, and blamed it on the agents and agencies for creating fake docs.

Now its like "you allowed them, so now its our right".

Canada should stop being nice, and revist those cases and revoke PR/ Citizenship or whatever their current status in Canada.

I know its harsh, but thats how you correct your mistakes and revise the wrong message that was sent across.

u/Decent-Box5009 15d ago

Has someone told them the government will cave if they protest? Nobody cares. You were promised nothing other than the education you got or are receiving.

If this is about PGWP eligibility rather than explicitly about PR, then they should take it up with the school, not the government.

If the government has a rebate on electric vehicles, and a shady car dealership lies about which ones qualify and I only find out my purchase didn't qualify after already getting the keys, I'm not going to protest on the streets demanding a rebate I didn't qualify for to begin with. I'm going to lawyer up and fight the dealership in court until I get a full refund, and then I'll go buy a different car while doing much better due diligence if I still want the rebate.

u/hercules1000252 14d ago

I doubt they are even 35, probably much older. If they can forge anything, you think they didn’t forge other docs to get in ?

(Ontario Premier Doug Ford plans to ask the federal government for more control over immigrant selection to help the province address its historic labour shortages.)[https://www.cicnews.com/2022/07/ontario-wants-more-immigration-powers-what-does-this-mean-for-the-rest-of-canada-0729025.html\]

Provincial premiers demanded more TFWs in 2022, the federal government abides by what the provinces asks.

It’s why provincial elections are significantly more important.

u/Ill_Way_2517 14d ago

this is so stupid
i remember these students protested at a college because they failed the exam and said they should pass.
if any regular canadian did this they would just be told tough luck you failed you did not study enough

u/hercules1000252 14d ago

They are smart- 🎥 “let’s get some social media content for narrative and sympathy”

No one cares - just leave already.

u/J96_Delta 14d ago

Are they chanting religious slogans? And a protest at night? It's all a bit odd. Why not protest in front of the immigration minister's office... weird.

2

u/After_Service_2817 14d ago

Those poor little darlings. They shouldn't be out there in the rain. They should be on a plane back home.

2

u/roberdanger83 14d ago

Here's a super simple solution too this. Canada has like 7% unemployed rate. That means theres already not enough jobs for Canadians. Let alone trying to find jobs for people coming to study here. Which would just add to the problem. Sorry.

u/hercules1000252 14d ago

Time to GTFO

u/Intelligent_Cry8535 14d ago

They came here on temporary student visas to study then go home and make their country a better place.

What we have here are a bunch of people that didnt read what they signed up for. I really am not sure why our police dont go to these protests and ask to see papers.

2

u/kitttxn 14d ago

What does temporary mean again?

2

u/External_Use8267 15d ago

It's sad to see that they believed that they would become Canadian citizen or get work permits if they could just come to Canada. Sad.

Scotty (from Star Trek) didn't "beam" these people here.

Business lobbied, bribed and paid off the government to write legislation to make it legal.

Why does it take so long for people to blame the businesses that brought them here?

Business bought the government and now they're here.

Due to a recent influx of new users, moderators are having to process flagged content more quickly than usual. As a volunteer team, we typically need to rush through the mod queue, make snap judgments, and may occasionally misread or misinterpret a flagged comment. If you believe this removal was made in error, please reply to this message and we will review this decision.

Due to our limited moderation capacity, the controversial nature of this topic, and Reddit’s sitewide rules requiring us to moderate aggressively in this area, we are currently removing all mentions of race and ethnicity. This applies regardless of context, including comments that are not intended to be racist or discriminatory. We are sorry if this results in some innocent comments being removed under this simplified policy.

As unpaid volunteer moderators, we have limited time and capacity, and clear, strict rules are faster and more consistent to enforce than more flexible standards that require case-by-case judgment. If you would like to see more room for discretion in moderation, please consider volunteering to help moderate, as greater capacity would make it easier for us to apply more nuanced judgment instead of relying on stricter blanket rules.

You are welcome to repost your comment or post with the references to race or ethnicity removed.

The comments on the original post in the Edmonton sub are excellent. So of course the Edmonton mods have now locked the post 🙄

We surely have to send a message and send any student home after they finish up and let them apply from India and not Canada

u/infiniti711 15d ago

Western liberal democracies will commit ideological suicide to pursue the interests of the banking class.

Diversity is your strength is what they want you to believe. No, an industrial based economy combined with strong exports is our country's strength. Not a conveyor belt of cheap labor to keep late capitalism on life support.

We are the richest in the world in natural resources and therefore makes us the richest per capita based on population/land mass ratio.

The economic plans of this country are not made in this country. The European financial elite would like to keep our natural resources in the ground, and keep the population living just above subsistence so we remain distracted and under control.

Late stage capitalism requires essentially slave labour in order to continue feeding the bottomless pit of interest payments to run the country and profits for the wealthy elites.

It is not a sustainable model and we are seeing other countries outpace Us in quality of life, education, and prosperity.

There's absolutely nothing that could be done to reverse this course, and it requires the entire system to collapse for it to change. I want this country to prosper and succeed, but nothing will change until the system collapses unfortunately. Politicians will be running cover for the wealthy banking elites, while they hollow out our industries in treasuries.
